Artist : Harvey danger Song : Pity and fear (ballad of the tragic hero)
Remember Pericles?
He democratized the city with his mind.
A little wisdom never hurt anyone...
Tell that to Socrates!
Telling the citizens what they needed to hear
(But still, they fed him hemlock.)
Now, the Greeks don`t speak my language.
I don`t get the relevance.
I am the reverence, I have no reverence.
Show me no deference; I`ll do the same for you.
La la la la
Did you ever know you`re my tragic hero?
You be the pity, I`ll be the fear,
And every subscriber will know what a truly
Great man you are.
In the conference room he said to me, quote,
ˇ°Avoid your generation`s proclivity for irony
and negativity
Held so commonly - don`t let me down, son.
There was a car, the wheels came off it,
And I know that nobody never made a profit.
Censor your gravity, boy,
I`m counting on you to be my prot¨¦g¨¦.
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!
Cast it off with the rest, flip,
Your footsteps are filling up
Every time you turn around,
You can see the idols and you`ll be knocking ˇ®em
down,
One, two, three, four, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha,
ha!ˇ±
Did you ever know you`re my tragic hero?
You be the pity, I`ll be the fear,
And every advertiser will know
What a truly great man you truly are.
Some with it politics like Andorra.
Some take it on like a mantle.
Some can`t hold a candle.
Some touch, some damn it.
But now I can`t!
Such a tragic hero.
You`re my tragic hero.
Such a tragic hero, ohh,
He`s my tragic hero.
